It’s a slow night at Amelia’s little casa de tolerancia. Gloria takes off to see her son, Luchi, and Soledad disappears with young Carlos, who has once again arrived with a pocket full of pesos. Amelia finds that she has an itch in her stockings, and an obliging Raymond is beckoned to scratch it (while the great José Luis Perales once again sets the mood).
